Here's an opinion...or what I've heard at least. I've always heard good
things about switching to propane. I've heard that it keeps the engine much
cleaner which in turn makes it last much longer. I've seen a couple
companies switch their fleet of trucks (several of them being teh older
style Ram by the way) to propane for some reason. I'm not sure if it's
cheaper, or if it does indeed increase the life of the vehicle. It would
definetly be worth looking in to. Let us know what you find out and what
you end up doing.
